Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen novel Chapter 935

Ralph gazed at Mia in disbelief, struggling to comprehend the situation.

While he had heard rumors about the long-lost heiress of the Lane family being discovered after many years, she had always maintained a low profile and seldom made public appearances.

Consequently, Ralph had no idea what the supposed heiress looked like.

Besides, his social standing in Nord City was far from that of the Lane family, and he had never crossed paths with the rumored heiress.

To Ralph, Mia was merely a woman who had been expelled from the Barrett family.

Now, she had suddenly risen to the position of heiress in the influential Lane family of Nord City!

This sudden transformation left Ralph feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Unable to swallow his pride, Ralph attempted to assert himself, addressing Mia, "Even if you're the heiress of the Lane family, what does it matter? You're still a daughter-in-law in the Barrett family. You should show me some resp—"

Before Ralph could complete his sentence, Peyton swiftly delivered another resounding slap, cutting him off.

"For individuals such as yourself, a slap represents the utmost respect you'll ever receive. And if that's not enough for you, I'm more than willing to oblige with a few additional strikes," Peyton quipped.

Ralph found himself utterly defenseless against the barrage of slaps. He continued to mutter curses and threats toward Mia, attempting to salvage his dignity.

However, Mia had no interest in engaging with Ralph any further.

At that moment, several men in suits entered and approached Connie and Lewis. "We are representatives of the Lane Law Firm, and our purpose here is to address the recent incidents involving your family.

"Your actions have severely damaged the reputation of the Lanes, leading us to file a lawsuit against you.

"Also, the Lane Group's acquisition team has already commenced the acquisition process of the Bowen Group. They will assume control of your company by tomorrow.

Observing Connie kneel before her, Mia abruptly stepped aside. "Don't try this stunt with me. I'm not falling for it," she said firmly.

"Ms. Lane, what do you require from us to spare the Bowen family? We're a family of orphans and widows, dependent on the Bowen Group for our livelihood. If our company collapses, we'll have nothing left!" Connie pleaded desperately.

Mia regarded Connie with a cold stare. "When Lewis' three former wives were destroyed by your family's exploitation, where was your compassion then? Why didn't you show pity to their families when they were left with nothing?"

Connie's guilt was evident in her eyes, but she hastily responded with feigned confidence, "Then I'll simply return the money to them. Wouldn't that resolve the issue?"

"It's too late for that! Once the Bowen Group goes bankrupt and its assets are liquidated, they'll be distributed directly to them anyway."

Mia didn't trust a word that came from Connie's mouth. Someone with such a lack of integrity held no credibility in her eyes.

Connie was furious, her lips turning pale. "You... you're driving our entire family to ruin! How can a woman like you be so heartless?"
